@nscappa There are times I feel like you do, that getting into the shower and all it involves, is simply too much to deal with. I use a peppermint liquid castile soap, and will do a "bucket bath", hitting the most important areas. The smell of the peppermint itself is a mood brightener, it seems.

Another thing we can use when the idea of a shower overwhelming, is something that caregivers and campers use. It is a soap impregnated cloth used with a little water, and simply used all over the body. There is no need to wash off the cleaning agent. I keep a package of them on hand for those challenging days. And I sent a package with my husband to use when he was camping off-grid for three weeks. He even used it as a shampoo! Here is the product I use: Scrubzz-Disposable-Rinse-Bathing-Wipes

Do you think something like this might help?
